Toyota 85150-52080 Link Assy, Windshield Wiper

To remove the wiper motor and linkage, start by taking off the wiper arms and peeling off the rubber weatherstrip along the edge of the windscreen lower cover panel. Next, unclip and remove the central section of the cover panel, then unscrew and prise out the various screw and clip fasteners from the remaining cover panels before unclipping and removing them. Disconnect the wiring plug from the wiper motor, then remove the three bolts to lift out the wiper motor and linkage from below the windscreen. If access to another component is needed, no further dismantling is required. To separate the motor and linkage, remove the nut from the motor spindle, ensuring to recover the washer, and mark the motor spindle and mounting frame before removing the three screws to separate the wiper motor from the frame. For refitting, reverse the removal steps while ensuring the motor spindle is in the 'parked' position, aligning the previously made marks, then refit the washer and tighten the nut, secure all fasteners, and finally reattach the wiper arms.
